BEND, Ore., January 23, 2020 (Newswire.com) -  Tech Soft 3D, the leading provider of software development toolkits to engineering software companies, today announces that Twanya Hood Hill will serve as the company’s Vice President of People & Culture. As a member of Tech Soft 3D's executive team, Hood Hill is responsible for driving people initiatives domestically and internationally. Specifically, she will ignite action in three key areas of focus: 1) leadership and organizational development, 2) talent development and learning, and 3) diversity and inclusion initiatives.

“Here at Tech Soft 3D, we’ve worked hard to maintain a culture where everyone’s voice matters, everyone is seen and known, and as we grow, we need someone who can help us maintain that people-centric culture,” said Ron Fritz, CEO of Tech Soft 3D. “I’m very excited about working with Twanya because of her great fit with our culture, positive energy and outstanding experience in organizational development, including her previous role as head of learning initiatives at Facebook. She has the right instincts and abilities to make significant and immediate impact to help us maintain our culture.”

Ensuring our culture will stay and grow as the company grows.”

With more than 28 years’ experience in consulting and HR, Hood Hill will focus on three main areas in her new role:

People are welcoming and caring, and there’s a real sense of equality. It’s refreshing and empowering.
